We visited for lunch & I had the beef dip which was tender & just the right amount with the salad & beans. My husband had the small steak sandwich which he could barely finish & it was cooked perfect & delicious (I had a couple tastes just to make sure!). The staff was friendly & efficient. The interior was... More

The steak sandwich is amazing all by itself and then you see the price and want to order another! The steak was juicy with just the right of fat. The house seasoning is out of this world...we went home with a whole case!

This place is exactly what everyone said it is: A rustic steakhouse that knows how to serve you meat that is cooked exactly how you ordered it. Our Ribeye and Ribs were cooked absolutely perfectly. That being said, if you are looking for anything else, then this is not your place. There is not any signature BBQ sauce, or even... More

We were tipped off by locals. This is the place for steaks. It does not look like much. But the steak was the best ever.

If you are really hungry for a chunk of meat this is the place. If you are looking for atmosphere and good service, keep looking. The treatment is a bit like the cattle that you are having for dinner. It's crowded, noisy, and the staff couldn't care less if your were there or not. LONG wait to get in.

At first we were told it would be a one hour wait. Knowing the food is wonderful, we decided to wait. We were pleasantly surprised when... More

Became addicted to Santa Maria Tri-tip BBQ about 30 years ago while on a great western bicycle rally there. Never miss out on the stuff while there or passing through. Discovered Jocko's while camping near there and always go back for more because they are the best of the one's that I tried in the Area. Had one of their... More

Last night I took my husband to Jocko's to celebrate his birthday. I made a reservation for 7:45 P.M. We arrive a little early. For a Saturday, the parking lot looked a little empty. We asked how long after our reserved time had passed. We were told another 30-45 minutes. Well 60 minutes after our reservation we still had not... More

This is the best steak restaurant around. The Lamb chops are to die for! I love my Lamb charred medium rare and thats they way its served, perfection. Husband had the Spencer steak (Ribeye) and he said you cant one any better. The prices are so reasonable we dont see how they do it. You get salad, anitpasto, huge pieces... More
